Sweetwater County wins CMAQ grant to apply dust suppressant on 76.82 miles of roads
Summary
The county received a FY26 WYDOT CMAQ award to apply magnesium chloride to 76.82 miles of county roads with a total project budget of $441,855 and a required local cash match of $88,371 (20%); commissioners approved the subrecipient grant agreement.
Sweetwater County will use a Wyoming Department of Transportation Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) subrecipient grant to apply magnesium chloride dust suppressant on 76.82 miles of county roads, county grants manager Christina Marshall reported.
Marshall said the total project budget is $441,855 with a required 20% local cash match of $88,371, and that the county’s match was already included in the FY2026 budget so no amendment was required. "The Public Works Department will use the funding to apply magnesium chloride dust suppressant to 76.82 miles of county roads for a total budget of $441,855," Marshall said. The board voted to approve the subrecipient agreement and authorized the chair to sign.
Public Works and grants staff thanked county and state partners for supporting the application and noted this award represented the full match requested under the CMAQ methodology changes; staff will follow the grant’s reporting and project completion schedule with a 09/30/2028 deadline.
